Does anyone know if Energy Suspension makes a rear end-link kit for the CSVT?
I did a search here and only came up with a few hits and none had any good info. The Energy Suspension web site says they have a "universal" kit and you need to measure the distance between the sway bar and the control arm...etc. etc. etc.
If anyone's already jumped through this hoop, I'd appreciate the info.
Thanx much!

Are you talking about the endlinks for the rear swaybar? If so, I just purchased the ES bushings for the rear sway bar. Included are the bushings for the swaybar and the endlinks.

I bought some urethane bushings from the parts store for the rear endlinks on my `96. My old rubber bushings were MIA.  That tighened the endlinks to the control arm quite a bit better. I am thinking I may try PA3LSVTs notes on the eyelet for the swaybar though. It would be intresting to see what could happen.

PF end link kit I have these installed and noticed them right away....before this I had just regular Polybushings installed w/ the stock bar....I upgraded to the Aussiebar and the poly endlinks bushings were crushed completely by the increased force. I decided to go with the Performance Fords Spherical Endlinks and like I said I noticed a difference right away. I can say honestly it was about 50% the difference I felt when I added the Aussiebar....Nice product and great customer service! Later!
ADMIN - Could you help me fix my old acct? "jcboeckl" email me for the details please!

Wow! I wouldn't think the endlinks would make that much of a difference. Pretty cool! The PF guys are great to work with, too.

We just completed a group buy on them and I think I read that there were a few left over (some unpaid committments). Contact Terry Haines if you're interested. Yes there is welding involved.
